He truly didn’t anticipate Sifuna’s candidacy. He was prepared with the “Mr. 40 Years” rhetoric, only to be met by someone he’s now struggling to brand and label.
He’s been caught off guard by his usual “us vs. them” politics.
In 2007, it was “41 vs. 1.” In 2013, “analog vs. digital.” In 2022, “hustlers vs. dynasty.” 2027 is proving to be a nightmare with the late entry of Sifuna’s candidacy.
The intelligence reports he receives daily are probably the reason for these outbursts and lame jokes. I think it will only get worse.
“Sifuna is very dangerous. Nyinyi mama mboga, msikubali kuchangia Sifuna pesa. Akiwa Nairobi, anakunywa pombe ile iko na majina mawili mawili kama Johnnie Walker. Huyo mtu ni extortionist mkubwa sana. Ana-extort mama mboga, governors, mpaka investors.” President Ruto warns Mama Mbogas against Sifuna.
